STORAGE
WARNING! Keep the pump's engine away from sources of open flame such as the
pilot light of a furnace, stove, water heater or other appliances when storing with
fuel in the tank, as an ignition source can ignite gasoline vapours.
Proper storage preparation is essential for keeping your pump in good
condition. The steps below will help to keep rust and corrosion from impairing
your pump function and appearance and will make the pump's engine easier to
start when used again.
The following precautions should be taken if storing your pump for a period
exceeding 30 days or for seasonal storage.
1. Store in a clean dry area.
2. Change the oil while the engine is still warm.
3. Clean the debris, chaff or grass from the pump and engine surface.
4. Drain all fuel from the fuel tank into a proper receptacle for storage.
5. Remove the spark plug. Place 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of oil into the spark plug hole.
6. Pull starter rope slowly 8-10 times to properly coat the cylinder bore and
piston for storage. Replace spark plug and tighten. Any residual oil will
burn off in subsequent starts. This may result in white smoke emission
from the muffler.
7. Store this pump in a horizontal position with the spark plug up. Storing with
the spark plug down will result in hard starting and/or engine smoking.
STORING PUMP WITH FUEL
1. If your engine will be stored with gasoline in the fuel tank and carburetor,
it is important to reduce the hazard of gasoline vapour ignition.
a. Select a well-ventilated storage area away from any appliance that
operates with a flame, such as a furnace, water heater, or clothes dryer.
